<h1>Inserting a panel stack into a document</h1>
<p>A panel stack is a holder for a collection of panels. Panels allow the 
 user to choose from among different views of data in the same document. 
 When you add a panel stack to a document, one panel is automatically added 
 to the panel stack. For an introduction to panels and panel stacks, see 
 
<a HREF="Panels_and_panel_stacks.htm">About layering data in dashboards: 
 Panels and panel stacks</a>.</p>
<h2>To insert a panel stack into a document</h2>
<ol type="1" class="whs1">
	
<li style="color: #000000; font-weight: normal; " class=p><p class="whs2">Open 
 the document in <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Design </B></span>or <span 
 style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Editable Mode</B></span>. </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Expand the document section where you want the panel 
 stack by clicking the plus sign next to the section name. You cannot add 
 a panel stack to the Details section.</p></li>
</ol>
<ol start="3" type="1" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p class="whs3">From the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Insert</B></span> 
 menu, select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Panel Stack</B></span>.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Click in the desired section of the document layout 
 area. The panel stack is added to the document, with a single panel.</p></li>
</ol>
<ol start="5" type="1" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p class="whs3">Add a title bar to the panel 
 stack. For steps, see

 a title bar to a panel stack</a>.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p class="whs3">You can change the position 
 or size of a panel stack, and format titles, borders, background color, 
 and title bar. To do so, right-click the panel stack and select <span

 and Formatting dialog box is displayed. For steps to format, see 
<a HREF="Formatting_panels.htm">Formatting 
 panels and panel stacks</a>.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>You can rename the panel. This name is displayed on 
 a selector, which allows users to switch between panels. For steps, see 
 
<a HREF="Rename_a_panel.htm">Renaming a panel</a>.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p class="whs3">You can add controls to the
